Upon arrival, they discovered two male victims suffering from gunshot wounds. Both had been inside a vehicle with a third passenger who was not injured.

A nearby citizen was rendering aid when officers arrived, and first responders transported the victims to local hospitals. One victim was later pronounced deceased, while the second remains in critical condition.

The shooting occurred on the street at that location, but it is too early to determine what led up to the incident.

No suspect information is available at this time.
